Hi,
For simple LED projects, I usually use an online LED calculator to get the values for the needed resistors.
I have just ordered some LEDs online but the specifications don't list the forward voltage, just the current draw.

How would I figure out how to power the LEDs and what resistors to use?
I am thinking of using 10 LEDs and having them all powered, all the time.
I would love to know how to calculate my needs.
Any ideas?
Cheers.
Phil
